I was feeling reckless so I played Vivaldi in reverse order of seasons.

I’m Baltimore sober. I only drink Natty Boh. That’s all I drink. I put it in my cereal. I dip my Utz crab chips in it.

If you watch nothing else today, take an hour and watch this. AOC is the best of us.

Almost 20 years ago, a doctor on TV was asked, "Isn't 12 a little early for a kid to be deciding to transition?" And her response was, "It's old enough for them to decide that it's not worth living anymore if they can't."

2. Initial major?
3. Did you switch majors?
4. Current occupation

Beautiful cover!
